Official NFC Championship Thread: 49ers @ Eagles

[nobody 1,633]

Big C*** Brock the second coming of Big D*** Nick in his old house?

[League Champion 718]

That geek is in for a rude awakening. He's not coming into Philly in January and winning anything. Poor kid

[nobody 1,633]

I'd open this as Eagles -3.  

I just checked and it opened at Eagles -2.  Such disrespect!

Iggles gonna end this Niners run on Sunday.... 

[League Champion 718]

In all honesty I think this is going to be a defensive slugfest. Philadelphia in January is not a good spot for a rookie QB. 

[Ray_T 448]

I think this has the potential to be the best matchup of the playoffs.

whether it turns out that way remains to be seen, but It looks pretty even in a lot of respects.

though I really do love the line in Philly.   San Fran wont be able to manhandle these guys like they do to so many O lines out there.

If the Philly O line holds, I think I will give them the edge

No doubt, that's the key right there. 

[Ray_T 448]

apparently this is a rematch for these 2 QB's.

apparently they played against each other in college 

Oklahoma 42, Iowa State 41

I don’t think it’s go8 g to be that great of a contest, I think Eagles win by double digits. 

[nobody 1,633]

I was thinking the Eagles easily here, but now that everyone is on the Eagles, it's making me think the 49ers are going to win.

I like the coaching in San Fran.

I think Hurts is better than Purdy.   But I like Purdy's Receivers/TE's better

Philly O line is really good but so Is the line in San Fran.  Both Defenses outstanding.

San Fran's run game is a bit better I think but it is close.

it may come down to who is better on that particular day.

[weepaws 1,834]

Better than A Brown and D Smith?  Mmm I would disagree, I like Eagles def Vs the Niners offense.

its close but I'd rather have Deebo Aiyuk and kittle  than  AJ, Devonta Smith and Goedert.

thanks

[weepaws 1,834]

I think it’s close, good playmakers, but A Brown i think is a top seven wr, I think D Smith is a top 12 based on talent.  

Samuel is a good playmaker, but he’s performed at par this season.  

I would take the Eagles triplets. 

But I like the Eagles def over the Niners def in this contest.  I’ll take Hurts Vs the Niners def over the rookie on the road NFC title on the line Vs a very good Eagles def. 

Based on my future bet I made on the Niners before the season I want them the Niners to win, but just don’t think so.

I think it is a good matchup.  And I understand the rookie QB in the spotlight on the road angle.  

But generally joe public goes off what they last saw.   Much of the public liked the Giants to cover or possibly beat the Eagles.  Giants were a public underdog.  Those same people now think the Eagles are unstoppable.   

Eagles in in a blowout.  9ers win a slugfest.  This always translates to....Eagles win this game in the public's eyes.  Because it is what they last saw.

This same thing should apply to the Bengals then.... Cincy was biggest public dog of the weekend.  Won convincingly and now the road favorite.  Tread carefully....

It certainly can.  But I think Mahomes injury has a lot to do with money coming in on Cincy.  If he is compromised at all, then that is a game changer.

[weepaws 1,834]

The injury to Mahomes killed the M/L , that was going to be a an easy win.

it is.   part of what makes Mahomes so dangerous is the fact he can run the ball, or stretch out plays until someone can get open.

his inability to run will make him like most QB's.   obviously he has other skills but the gap is not as large when his ability to run is hindered.

[Mike FF Today 537]

Expect these guys to play and be fine...

 

[DocNiner 31]

It'll definitely be a defensive slugfest with the edge to Philly. 9ers need to figure out how to stop the deep throws which could be a game killer for them. Seems like everybody's on the Eagles and rightfully so given the stats they put up this year. Noners need to play the game of their life to win which is possible. If the defense can slow Philly down some and keep it low scoring we have a shot to win it it. Not giving up on my 49ers but there in a tough spot. I still like them to come out on top with a FG by Gould with under a minute left

EAGLES-  21

49ERS-   23

How much is your house payment, I’ll cover it for you, and then you can feed those kids of yours.  

I draft a Qb and TE every season , it’s a must.  But I’m working on making the TE slot not a necessary in my main league. So next season on that league I hope I won’t be drafting a TE.  

Thanks.

Maybe the best o-line and d-line in football.  Hard to go against that. 

[Mike FF Today 537]

No Elijah Mitchell today, he is inactive.

[Mike FF Today 537]

Inactives -

49ers: QB Jimmy Garoppolo, CB Ambry Thomas, OL Nick Zakelj, DE Drake Jackson, TE Ross Dwelley, RB Ty Davis-Price, RB Elijah Mitchell

Eagles: QB Ian Book, CB Josiah Scott, RB Trey Sermon, S Anthony Harris, LB Kyron Johnson, OL Josh Sills

Line: PHI -3.0
Total: 45.5

[nobody 1,633]

Warner already hurt.

[gcmmidwest 86]

Philly's o-line whewwee 

[jrokh 519]

One of the best playoff catches I’ve ever seen by DeVonta Smith!

[nobody 1,633]

That was a fumble by Purdy.  Looks like the horseshoe may have fell out of the butt.

[Mike FF Today 537]

That’s a fumble.

[Mike FF Today 537]

Josh Johnson in at QB for the 49ers. Elbow or wrist injury for Purdy.

[nobody 1,633]

I saw Purdy warming up as the 1st and quarter ended.  

[nobody 1,633]

Can't imagine what the announcers think is promising about Purdy standing there with ice or whatever that is on his elbow.
